Episode Summary

Shebang returns to Dakota on a permanent basis, but her constant presence during battles gets on Static and Gear's nerves. Meanwhile, Madelyn Spaulding has evolved telekinetic powers, using her new abilities to take over the Meta Breeds in order to get revenge on Static once and for all.

Ha....

This marks another come back of Madelyn and She-Bang. It was very funny how Virgil and Richie reacted when Shenice came back to them with a whole new different personality. The quote "She was so busy telling me about the new curtains for the gas station that she followed me into the boys bathroom and she thought that IT could use new curtains too." was Great. And also the fight with Madelyn and Ebon ( that couple will never learn to work together ) was kinda hilarious. But in the end Static and Gear apologized and got a rib-breaking hug and I mean literally! It's just so funny!moreless

Static's given Ebon headshots that are far more powerful than the one that he gave Spaulding, but that hasn't seemed to affect Ebon's powers at all. However, Spaulding gets a major overhaul from a little zap. (Reply: All the head-zapping Static gave Ebon didn't affect his powers because his aren't telekinetic like Madelyn's.)

The last time we saw Ebon in jail, he had special restraints on to keep him from phasing through the walls. This time? Zilch. And people call it the Metahuman menace, more like the very inept cop menace. (Reply: It looks like the police had gotten more advanced technology with what looked like forcefields. As long as they were in place, the special restraints weren't needed once Ebon was taken inside the cell. Notice they were needed as he was being transported at the end of the episode.) (Reply: But those force fields didn't stop Hotstreak from using his powers. Even if he couldn't use his powers on the fields, couldn't Ebon have used them on the walls to escape?)

Talon says in "The Breed" that she hates Metahumans that aren't deformed from the Big Bang, but she's more than willing to work with Hotstreak and Spaulding. Granted, the fact that she's broken that philosophy before with Shiv and Kangor, it's not that hard to believe, but still . . . (Reply: Talon probably just meant that she hates Bang Babies whom she feels think they're better than her because they aren't deformed.)

Why would Gear and Static be surprised when Shebang was distributing her calling cards to the reporters? Gear himself did the same thing to the police officers when he first came upon the crime fighting scene in "The Usual Suspect." And it seemed like the reporters didn't know Shebang, despite the fact she had already gotten the spotlight in the episode "Shebang." (Reply: They knew she was shy around people, and didn't learn until later that she was only pretending to protect her identity.)

Virgil: Bad enough Shebang keeps butting in when we're on patrol, but Shenice won't let us alone neither.Richie: You're telling me. She was so busy describing the new curtains for the gas station, she followed me right into the boys' restroom. She thought that could use new curtains, too.

There's a Justice League reference and a "Soul Power" reference in this episode. The Watchtower was on a poster outside of the comic book store, and Soul Power was on the back of a comic book that Virgil had.
